Product Data
Biological target:
Simazine is phytotoxicity and not highly toxic to soil microflora and algae. Simazine induces spleen cell apoptosis and reduces the proliferation of B and T cells in mice.
In vitro activity:
Simazine exposure led to decreased oocyte maturation competence and embryonic developmental capacity. Simazine disrupted microtubule stability and actin polymerization, hindering spindle assembly and migration. Additionally, it impaired mitochondrial function and cytosolic Ca2+ homeostasis, elevating ROS levels. Reference: Ecotoxicol Environ Saf. 2022 Jan 15;230:113105. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34954678/
In vivo activity:
Simazine delayed the onset of puberty in the female rat and decreases serum prolactin, similar to other chlorotriazines. In the 21-day simazine exposure study, vaginal opening was delayed, the number of normal cycles was significantly decreased, and the day of first estrus was delayed compared to controls. In the 41-day exposure, vaginal opening and the day of first estrus was delayed, but the number of normal estrous cycles was not different than controls.
